These Samsung SSD's are lightning quick ! Although I use this SSD as my scratch drive for Photoshop CS6, my main SSD is also a Samsung EVO series and it is very quick to load applications. From power-on, I can be at the desktop ready to go in about 10 seconds & Photoshop CS6 will launch in about 2 seconds. This product is amazing !

Using the product in a new Haswell build as my OS and game drive. Works great, very fast and no issues so far. The write and read speeds seem great. Not a super experienced user but it has really shown me the immense value of an SSD.

I loaded my OS on it, and I have not ever had a computer run faster! The only down side was it was a little bit of a trick to get the 2.5" drive mounted in my 4" bay. A couple brackets and a little ingenuity made it work, though.
